eachfunction gets its own file in that dir, and either these files above include the individual files, or the original
func.sgmljust becomes the organizer of all the functions. That would allow us to do future reorganizations with minimal
churn,make validation of this patch a bit more straightforward, and make it easier for future editors to find the
functionthey need to edit.
looking back.
The patch is big. no convenient way to review/validate it.
so I created a python script to automate it.
we can review the python script.
(just googling around, I know little about python).
* create new files for holding the content.
func-string.sgml
func-matching.sgml
func-datetime.sgml
func-json.sgml
func-aggregate.sgml
func-info.sgml
func-admin.sgml
* locate parts that need to copy paste to a newly created file, based
on line number.
line number pattern is mentioned here:
http://postgr.es/m/CACJufxEcMjjn-m6fpC2wXHsQbE5nyd%3Dxt6k-jDizBVUKK6O4KQ%40mail.gmail.com
* insert placeholder string in func.sgml:
&func-string;
&func-matching;
&func-datetime;
&func-json;
&func-aggregate;
&func-info;
&func-admin;
* copy the parts to new files.
* validate newly created file. (must only have 2 occurrences of "sect1").
* delete the parts from func.sgml files, since they already copy to new files.
sed --in-place "2408,4180d ; 5330,7760d ; 8942,11127d ; 15502,19436d ;
21567,22985d ; 24346,28017d ; 28020,30714d " func.sgml
* manually change doc/src/sgml/filelist.sgml
<!ENTITY func SYSTEM "func.sgml">
+<!ENTITY func-string SYSTEM "func-string.sgml">
+<!ENTITY func-matching SYSTEM "func-matching.sgml">
+<!ENTITY func-datetime SYSTEM "func-datetime.sgml">
+<!ENTITY func-json SYSTEM "func-json.sgml">
+<!ENTITY func-aggregate SYSTEM "func-aggregate.sgml">
+<!ENTITY func-info SYSTEM "func-info.sgml">
+<!ENTITY func-admin SYSTEM "func-admin.sgml">
2 requirements.
1. manual change doc/src/sgml/filelist.sgml as mentioned before;
2. in python script, at line 35, i use
"os.chdir("/home/jian/Desktop/pg_src/src7/postgres/doc/src/sgml")"
you need to change to your "doc/src/sgml" directory accordingly.
